It allows for a centralized view of releases across pipeline stages with approval-based approaches at each stage. BuildPiper also provides an automated audit log mechanism to collect evidence. It helps manage and track CI/CD pipelines across environments with Jira connectivity, allowing Jira tickets to be created, updated, and resolved through pipeline jobs. Approval questions can also be created in BuildPiper and reported in Jira. Overall, BuildPiper provides traceability across the change management process with complete documentation and notifications to establish clear accountability using Jira as the system of record.
